How do i add a custom paper size to an hp deskjet 3000 j310 series?

I'm using the printer with Windows 7. Trying to print on 5.5" by 8.5" paper, which is not displayed under paper size in properties (Paper/Quality tab). I don't see a way of adding custom sizes.I thought maybe the custom check box under the same Paper/Quality tab might have something to do with it, but it's grayed out, and, in any case, it looks like it relates to changing the print quality, not the size.

Hi there,
According to the product specifications located here the paper size is not supported.
Best of Luck!

  • HP Envy 5530 - how do you add a custom paper size

    I'd like to add two custom paper sizes; Halfsheet (8.5" x 5.5") Portrait and Halfsheet (5.5" x 8.5") Landscape.  I create lots of invitations and thank you cards, and have been unsuccessful in figuring out how to add these special or "custom" sizes to my printer.  I end up taking my paper to a friends home to print them so I need to figure out how to remedy the problem.  Any help would be greatly appreciated.  I have Windows 8 if that helps.

    Hi there,
    Great question.  This document on the hp support site should get you started.  Once the page opens, click on the + sign next to Windows 8 and follow the instructions.
    Happy printing!
    Thanks!

  • Photosmart C410: How do I associate a custom paper size with the photo tray?

    Our Photosmart 3310 recently broke down and I purchased a C410 to replace it.  I sell a small item online that I ship in 3 5/8 x 6 1/2 envelopes.  With the 3310, I had figured out a way to print the envelopes from the photo tray.  While Word 2007 allows me to select the photo tray, the printer would not print from there until I created a custom paper size in the printer preferences dialog box.
    One of the reasons I got the C410 was for the photo tray.  It's a real pain to have to swap out the regular paper and stick in one evelope every time I want to print another envelope.  Well, unfortunately, that's what I've been doing.  I select the photo tray in Word, but the printer goes right ahead and prints from the main tray.  I had forgotten what I did to make it work on the 3310, so I experimented with that printer's drivers until I figured it out.
    My problem is that the software interface for the C410 is different than that for the 3310.  I can't figure out how to associate a custom paper size with the photo tray.  To test my theory this evening, I told Word that my envelope size was 5 x 7.  The printer didn't hesitate to take an envelope from the photo tray.  Of course the return address went into a dark void because the envelope is not 5 x 7.
    The difference between the two interfaces is that the 3310 has both printing shortcuts as well as "Print Task Quick Sets."  The C410 only has printing shortcuts.
    If anyone can help me, I'll be very grateful!  I've probably spent hours trying to get this figured out, and I have no idea what to do.

    Hi,
    Which Microsoft product (application) are you using ? Printer supports the following custom sizes:
    From ADF: Custom-sized media (ADF) between 127 to 216 mm wide and 241 to 305 mm long (5 to 8.5 inches wide and 9.5 to 12 inches long)
    From input tray: Custom-sized media between 76.2 to 216 mm wide and 101 to 762 mm long (3 to 8.5 inches wide and 4 to 30 inches long)
    You need to select right custom size from the application.
    Regards.

  • In elements 12 how to print borderless on custom paper size

    how do I get rid of margins on custom paper printing so the print is borderless?

    Paul,
    I have an older version of PSE, but I doubt that they have changed the print dialog.
    In Editor, go to File>Print, and on the bottom of the screen there is "More Options". Click on that to get to the "Custom Print Size" tab.. Check "Scale to Fit Media." Does that work?
    Have a look at the "Printing Choices" tab as well. Is everything unchecked under "Border?"

  • How do i select a custom paper size on the 6500A , specifics 18cmX26cm

    I want to print on a specific paper size, 18cmX26cm.  The suggestions from microsoft don't accuratly display my features or windows or the tabs that they say to click.  Also your forums seem to mislead the same information.  For the money I paid for this printer is not what I expected and very disappointed.  The lack of info is appalling, and confusing and just down right frustrating, leading me to conclude that your all as crazy as I am for trying to do something over and over, and expecting different results.

    After moving to Windows 8, and loading the current driver, When I go to Print Preferences > Paper size options the dropdown box does not show "Custom".  Current paper suzesare listed, with "More" below the line.  Under XP, "Custom" was below the line and "More" was above the line.  So the way it sits, there is now way to add a custom paper size.  Am I missing soething?

  • How to add a new custom paper size? I am using a HP Deskjet 1000 J 110a printer.

    How to add a new custom paper size? I am using a HP Deskjet 1000 J 110a printer. I am using Windows XP home edition. The Custom option itself is not appearing in the process of selecting paper sizes in Printing preferences. I have installed this printer just today, but I bought it eight months back in Dubai. Could there be chance that since I purchased it in Dubai and I am using it in India, the software's not functioning properly. 
    Can you please help me with this problem immediately? Reply soon...

  • How do I get OS X to ask printer for custom paper size

    I am printing postcards.  These are 1/4 of a letter sheet, or 5.5" wide x 4.25" tall.   
    I have a commercial grade HP Laserjet 4350, and I've configured that size in its custom menu for tray 1 (the envelope feeder tray). The printer is happy.
    I've also set a custom paper size in the MacOS, that I've called "Postcard Quarterpage" and I have that selected in the print dialog.  In fact I made it default.
    However, under Paper Handling, it says "Destination paper size: Suggested paper: US Letter" and this is greyed out.  If I check "Scale to fit paper size" which I Do Not Want, then I can pick a variety of sizes.  However my custom size is not in the list. 
    This happens on all applications, so it is definitely OS X Mountain Lion (latest patch).
    Anyway, the upshot is MacOS requests US LETTER size from the printer, so the printer goes "Take this postcard stock out and gimme US LETTER".    The printer can detect paper sizes.  If I try to give it postcards anyway, it blows an error and won't print, which is what it should do.
    How do I get OS X to tell the printer "Gimme 5.5x4.25" like I've instructed it? 

    Hi there Wolf!
    I have a couple of articles here that I believe will help you out with your question. First, here is an article with some information on custom paper sizes:
    OS X Mountain Lion: Manage custom paper sizes
    http://support.apple.com/kb/PH10748
    Note that in that article, it states:
    Custom paper sizes aren’t available for some printers.
    The reason for that is because this is controlled by the driver for the individual printer. You will want to make sure you have the latest version of the printer driver installed on your computer. More information on this can be found in the following article:
    Printer and scanner software available for download
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3669
    It might also be helpful to reset your printing system to see if that will resolve the issue. More information on this process can be found here:

    Take care, and thanks for visiting the Apple Support Communities.

  • CR 2008 SDK: how to set custom paper size?

    Dear forum users, I'm trying to use Crystal Reports 2008 SDK to print barcode labels to a Datamax Printer.
    The printer uses a custom page size. Can anyone tell me how to set custom page size and margins using C# and CR2008 SDK?
    Best regards
    Alessandro

    I'm experiencing this problem: I need to print barcode labels which are 4 x 9 cm each (a custom paper size). The report has been build correctly, orientation is right but when I print the labels programmatically by an application I made the label gets printed in a wrong way.
    In particular, orientation and paper size are not correct.
    So I would like to try to force both of them (both the orientation and the custom paper size). How can I do that?
    Best regards

  • How do I print on a greeting card in landscape when I can't save custom paper size?

  • HP Officejet Pro 8100 ePrinter & custom paper sizes

    Have found all the helpful instructions about creating new custom paper sizes in Windows 7. But am complete novice & need to buy a printer for a charity. Settled on this model because of good reviews but most work will be 1 document of custom paper size. Need to know if the instructions given are fail-proof!! (Before i spend their money.)
    This question was solved.
    View Solution.

    Hello invqn,
       after having performed some detailed research, as well as installing the Pro 8100 (and other products) on a Windows 7 system, we determined the Pro 8100 doesn't support Custom Sizes:  that was by design and intent.
       Note that one of our engineer's proposed using a different set of drivers (from an older device) as a potential work-around, but this is unproven and may serve to limit your overall functionality of the device.
       However, we did confirm that a newer device that is currently out, the HP Officejet Pro 8610 (or 8620 or 8630) e-All-in-One, DOES support custom sizes; these are multi-function printers.
        Using the instructions in the link you sent, you can create new Forms with custom sizes and it will show up in the Printer Properties for you to use/select. It supports custom sizes from 3.00 x 5.00 in. to 8.50 x 14.00 in. 
       Our intent is only to provide information on what we know; you might take a moment and perhaps see if an HP Marketing representative might be able to give you more information, but that's what we have.
       We hope this helps....

  • Adobe pro - print settings: How do i make a custom page size list, which i can copy to my other comp

    Adobe pro - print settings: How do i make a custom page size list, which i can copy to my other computers who have adobe pro installed?

    your right.. i ment acrobat pro :-)
    my problem is that i use the PDF printer to export CAD drawings as PDF´s.
    As it is now, there are some pre-defined page sizes in the print settings, and i know i can add custom pages manually one at a time.
    What i want is to copy the list of my danish standard page sizes, and use them on my other versions of acrobat.
    Its like 70 different sizes, and i have them made manually on my current computer, but i hope its possible to copy the list to other computers.
    Maby its some script where i can define the sizes, and then copy to another computer. Im just not that much of a computer genius :-)
    Hope i got through this without to many spelling mistakes...
    Thanks for helping.

  • Problem with custom paper size on dot matrix printer

    Hi All,
    I'm using CR2008 with updated to SP2. I have a problem with custom paper size (W=21; H=14), the CR Viewer show report with custom paper size correctly but when I print it to a dot matrix printer (Epson LQ 300+) the content was rotated to landscape. If print to a laser printer the content was printed correctly. My report was printed correctly by CR10 or previous versions I got this issue when upgraded to CR2008. I aslo tested my computer and printer with orther application like MS Word the printing have no problem with custom paper size.
    Thanks for any advice for me.
    Han

    Looking at the Epson LQ 300+ driver, I see that the latest update is from 2002. In my experience, most matrix printer drivers are not unicode. Crystal Reports is designed to only work with unicode printer drivers. See the [How Printer Driver Options Affect a Report|https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/boc/index?rid=/library/uuid/a09051e9-721e-2b10-11b6-f9c65c64ef29&overridelayout=true] article, page 6 for details. Also, see [this|https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/servlet/prt/portal/prtroot/com.sap.km.cm.docs/oss_notes_boj/sdn_oss_boj_dev/sap(bD1lbiZjPTAwMQ==)/bc/bsp/spn/scn_bosap/notes.do] note.
    Finally, see if you can print from the CR designer to this printer and if you get the correct results here.

  • Photosmart Duplex with Custom Paper Size

    I've recently bought a Photosmart Premium C310a for a personal project where I needed a photo printer that could handle duplex printing and custom sized paper, which according to the spec this printer does. 
    However, when you try to do this the printer driver in Windows Vista tells me that custom sizing is not compatible with duplex printing, rendering the Photosmart Premium a large lump of plastic and wiring that I have no use for.
    Has anyone got any ideas of how I can make this work?
    Thanks,

    OK, the paper weight is outside that "supported" for duplexing as shown in the user manual but it might work.
    I do not have a c310a set up to test with but I tried with a c309a I have here.  What exactly did you try?  I set a custom paper size in the Printing Preferences, Features tab and then selected automatic two sided printing and it seems to work.  Are you trying to print full borderless photo's in duplex mode?  That is not supported and I do not know any way to make it work.  It is also not supported (and will not work) to print with photo media selected and printing in duplex mode.
